James Payn, in recent English notes in
The Independent, says: 1t seems To be
the fact that what people in general de-
light in above all things is notes.-the
organ, of course, II possible, but II not the
aurdy gurdy, or even the tongs and bones.
IL this were not the case it is impossible
that the nuisance of bell ringing should so
long have been tolerated. Letters from
the relatives of sick persons are just now
flooding the papers: My mother has brain
fever. hnd the jangling bells drive her
frantic. My sister, now on her death
bed. can only sleep in the early morning,
and then the church bells begin The
existence of these letters is one Of the
many proofs of how much less the English
like noise than we do" II Mr.. Payn
should stay here awhile he would conclude
that England is an asylum Of silence. One
of the strongest impressions made on an
American returning TO his native land
from foreign climes is that il is pande-
monium unmatched on the globe; that is,
this is his impression If he does not hap
pen to share in the national ''thick card

and of late the alarming frequency OF tue
statement that death WAS caused BY rheu-
matIsm or neuralgia Of the heart cannot
fail to have been noticed In all pTuhd
5'hty many deaths attrIt uted to heart dis
ease are CAUSED by these terrible diseases,
which are far more dangerous than Is gen
orally considered. l. there any positive
cure? Tie best answer To such Il question
Is gwen by those who hIrs be,R cured by
the use Of Athlophoros.
+. A. Curry. son of Mrs j. H. Curry, Of

Gus to her use of AthlophOros had been al
most a constant sufferer from ntiammatorv
rheumatism OF the most acute form Atth
time she commenced with this medicine she
was in most helpless condition; her suffer
ing could well be termed torture: she was
confined 10 her bed for many weeks, nothing
We had done gave her any relief. My father
was almost discouraged and disheartened
fearing there never would he any relief for
her Not knowing what to do next he came
to town, going to Mr. Richey's drug store.
he said he must have something that would
~ fNst give litl VI
Athlophoros and told my father to 20 and
see Josiah White about his use Of it, Mr.
White spoke highly of the medicine and
sdvised my father to get bottle and try it,
which he did. Alter taking a few doses
mother began to GET relief, after she had
used two bottles she was up and around and
in a weeks time she came down town. How
long had she been afflicted with this rheu-
matism? For sixteen wears, of course it
would be better and worse at different times.
How much did she use in all? was asked.
